2014 Front and Rear Caliper Bolt Torque?

I have searched, but can't find a definitive answer for the torque specs for the front AND rear brake caliper mounting bolts for the 2009-2014 F150.

I find a lot for just the front, but it depends on the year... the 2004-2008 used 18mm hex head bolts (I used to have an '06) and the torque was 148lb-ft, if I remember correctly.

My 2014 has 21mm hex head bolts on the front, and I have seen a few times where people said the torque is 184 lb-ft.

My rear bolts are 18mm and I have only seen 128 lb-ft, although I think that may have been for an F250 so I'm not sure..

Can anyone tell me for SURE what the torque should be? Someone who has access to a factory service manual, or something else actually published by Ford would be awesome. Thanks.

The proper torque for any threaded fastener is 1/4 turn before it breaks. At least that was the joke back in Engineering School.
